Deciphering classic tire sizes

I have a 1959 Edsel with BFG Silverotwn's Tire size is 8.00-14. I found a set of Silvertown's that are 7.50-14.

Am I correct that the 8.00 and 7.50 is the tread width and that the 7.50 are just slightly narrower at the tread, but the bead should still seat properly?

Thanks in advance for any information.
